Between the Spaces is meant to cause the viewer to explore connectivity and art as it pertains to digital versus tactile mediums.

What is a stronger, more real connection? Is it being in the same room, face to face, or is it being on the other side of the country in a digital space?

Mixing printed portraits with markings painted virtually through augmented reality, this exhibit brings those two worlds together.

It is the hope of the artists, as the viewer moves through the gallery interacting with the different elements of the exhibit that they feel connected and included enough to be a part of the conversation.

MORE ABOUT THE ARTISTS

JAIYE FARRELL:
Oklahoma-based artist Jaiye Farrell cultivated his style of painting from abstract patterns that transcend societal and cultural divides and remember the communal roots of humanity. From an infatuation with archeology emerged a creative and ambitious talent: to craft signature designs that inspire self-reflection.

“The pattern I am cultivating is a rhythm of line and shape. I use like a substance that morphs so I can transform surfaces objects and spaces around me.”

CODY GILES:
Driven by connection, community, and alliteration, Cody Giles is a photographer who always sets out to capture the personality of a subject. Not just another portrait, but rather one that conveys just who that person is without knowing them. He strives to do this in all types of photography, from live music to families, to fashion editorials. Capturing moments in thoughtful and artful ways is always the goal.
